This page is dedicated to one of my favorite musicians of all time. Not only can this guy write great music, he also handles lead vocals and plays awesome guitar. I had the pleasure of meeting him a few times and I tortured him with guitar and studio questions, since I am both a weekend musician and a huge fan. ~ Charlie C. P.S. Let me guess... You're here because you want to see pictures of Mrs. Billy Squier, right? -- Keep scrolling and perhaps I can help you!

 This
is a picture of Billy Squier and me taken at the release party for
his album, "Tell The Truth." The event was held in May, 1993 at the
Hard Rock Cafe in New York City. This was the first time I ever met
Billy in person and as you can see, I look reasonably calm and
collected. |
 This
is a picture of Billy and his dog, Simon, in their apartment wearing
a T-shirt made with the above photo (1995). This is not a Photoshop
trick, he's really got my picture on the T-shirt! Many thanks to
Judy Miller, Billy's personal assistant, for taking this photo for
me. For a fan, I don't think it gets any better than this. |

 This
is a picture of me and Billy's right-hand man, Jeff Golub, taken in
May 1993 at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York City. As soon as I ran
into Jeff, I immediately told him about how I used to steal all of
his riffs off of the "In The Dark" home video released in 1982. He
said, "You still have that?!" May the VHS Gods protect this classic
tape in my collection until it's released on DVD! (Update, April
2001: thanks to Pioneer Home Video and Amazon.com, I now have a copy
on DVD.) |
 This
is an advertisement for Billy's guest appearance at the Learning
Annex in New York City in August 1993. Those lucky fans who made it
to the show got a chance to see Billy perform two songs
acoustically: Squier's "I Have Watched You Fly" and Simon &
Garfunkel's "The Boxer". I can go on and on with stories from this
night and will most likely ramble on at another time. Until then,
enjoy this rare NYC area advertisement. |
 This
is one of the souvenirs I got at the Learning Annex appearance (see
above.) Billy said "Charlie, what do you want me to sign here?"
Since I have tons of other autographed stuff from him I replied, "Be
creative!", so he wrote, "BLAH, BLAH, BLAH!" See it for yourself and
zoom in on this scan which I tried to get as clear as possible for
further reading. |
 Talk
about a collectors item! Billy tossed this autographed banana into
the audience at a Freddie Mercury tribute show in NYC on 2/17/98. I
was lucky enough to get it thrown right at me, I didn't even have to
leave my seat. Later on that night I told Billy that he hit me in
the eye with it and that we should try to settle things out of
court. |
 Speaking
of the Freddie Mercury Tribute show, "Mercury - The Afterlife and
Times of a Rock God", here's a scan of my ticket from that night. I
would like to point out that the picture of the actor on the ticket,
Paul Goncalves, did not do him justice. In full costume, live and in
person, this guy looked, spoke and acted exactly like Freddie. It
was so spooky that after the show I asked Billy how he felt watching
Freddie alive again on stage. He was equally impressed as I was. |
 One
day before my wife and I were to be married, we received a special
overnight package from New York. Inside? Framed and autographed
lyrics to "Your Love Is My Life" from a guest who couldn't make it
to the ceremony. This special, early wedding present hangs proudly
in our home. Judy Miller tells me that Billy typed them himself. If
Judy says it, it
must be true! |
 Piper
CD's anyone? May the force be with you! These things are worth their
weight in gold until Billy is able to re-release them. I was lucky
enough to get copies of both Piper albums from Japan back in
1991. Unfortunately these are way out-of-print around the world,
including Japan. The sad news about this is that if the Japanese
don't press it, forget about it. Japan has/had every CD you ever
wished for. |
 I
recently came across this autographed flyer from Billy's Borders
Books appearance in September 1998. This was a great night for all
the New York metropolitan area fans, and I think Billy had a pretty
good time, too. From what I have read and heard from fans who went
to other in-store appearances on this tour, it was the same thing
all around. If you wanted to be up-close and personal with Squier
and his music, this was the place to be. |
 Remember
when you were a kid and watched "The Superfriends" on Saturday
morning? Remember when your favorite superheroes would get together
in the same episode? I always found it cool that this could happen,
and yes kids, I guess it happens in real life, too. The four guys in
this photo are some of my favorite 80's rock superheroes. In case
you don't know who's standing next to Billy, let me introduce you to
Neal Schon, Steve Perry and Jonathan Cain of Journey. What a great
year 1981 was! "Don't Say No" and "Escape". This was music! I'm now
going to crank up these two classic albums and break out my Atari
video games! |
 This
is a Billy Squier Screen Saver that I put together for users of
Microsoft Windows. Click the graphic on the left to get your copy
now. It's my gift to you. Thanks for visiting my web page! |
 In
my opinion, Billy's rare "Don't Let Me Go" video is his best to
date. It more than redeems him from the infamous "Rock Me Tonite"
disaster. I've finally posted this clip for you guys on YouTube.

 July
29, 2009 was a good day in Squierville. Billy and company rocked our
asses off at the Ridgefield Playhouse. My ears are still ringing, so
please forgive me. What did you say? "Is Billy Squier married?" You

 On
9/2/12 in Westport, CT I put Billy under
House Arrest ! Please
"Like" us on Facebook!
I told him that it would not be a problem if he cut off the sleeves or otherwise remodeled the shirt for those morning jogs on the beach. |
